Abstract

Writing is a complicated psycholinguistic process of generating messages. It is determined by the writers’ personality, their communicative and cognitive needs, target settings for upcoming types of written messages, and the audiences for which the written speech is created.The present paper provided an absolutely new and original approach to writing teaching in the EFL class. Concepts of writing and free writing were investigated in order to differentiate recognized writing techniques from offered technique: Teaching free writing in the English and Russians. It was preceded from the classical model of automatic writing by Myers (1885) and the free writing strategy by Elbow (1998). Our newly elaborated technique had some common features with both of the above mentioned teaching techniques, but it differed in what English language learners had to write without stopping through using both languages: their mother and target languages.The research aimed to develop teaching tips based on free writing in Eng-Rus techniques that are recommended to be implemented for teaching English to beginners. Findings can be considered by English teachers of elementary and secondary schools, and adult English learners at the elementary level.
